Proposal #: 0746925Title: CAREER: Non-Conventional Solutions for Ensuring Security in Cognitive Radio NetworksThe PHY and MAC layers of cognitive radio networks are very different from those of conventional wireless networks. The distinguishing attributes of cognitive radio networks such as cooperative spectrum sensing, on-demand spectrum contention, incumbent- and self-coexistence mechanisms, and spectrum etiquette mechanisms raise new security implications that have not been studied previously. The overarching goal of this research is to contribute to the ongoing research and standardization efforts of cognitive radio technology by investigating crucial security issues that hold the key to the success and wide deployment of cognitive radio networks. We are currently focusing on problems that cannot be addressed using conventional security solutions. To solve these challenging problems, research is needed in areas that are considered "non-conventional" within the context of network security. These areas include RF signal identification, data smoothing, cyclic spectrum analysis, distributed detection and data fusion, etc. This research involves conducting high risk and high impact research in the aforementioned areas. We are investigating several security issues unique to cognitive radio networks, including incumbent node emulation and security vulnerabilities in network self-coexistence. The research findings from this research will serve a critical need in the cognitive radio research community by addressing security issues that have not been studied previously. We expect that our research findings will also benefit regulators and manufacturers involved in cognitive radio standardization and development.

提案＃：0746925TITLE：职业：确保认知无线网络安全性的非规定解决方案。认知无线网络的PHY和MAC层与常规无线网络的phy和Mac层大不相同。 认知无线电网络的区别属性，例如合作频谱传感，按需频谱争夺，现有和自我申请机制以及光谱礼节机制引起了先前未研究的新安全含义。 这项研究的总体目的是通过研究关键的安全问题来为认知无线电技术的持续研究和标准化工作做出贡献，这些安全问题是认知无线网络成功和广泛部署的关键。 我们目前正在关注无法使用常规安全解决方案解决的问题。 为了解决这些具有挑战性的问题，需要在网络安全背景下被认为是“非惯性”的领域进行研究。这些领域包括RF信号识别，数据平滑，环状频谱分析，分布式检测和数据融合等。本研究涉及在上述领域进行高风险和高影响研究。 我们正在研究认知无线电网络独有的几个安全问题，包括现有节点的仿真和自我检查中的安全漏洞。 这项研究的研究结果将通过解决以前尚未研究的安全性问题来满足认知无线电研究社区的关键需求。我们预计我们的研究结果还将受益于参与认知无线电标准化和发展的监管机构和制造商。
